Overview

DESIGN OF PRESTRESSED STRUCTURES

This course aims to equip students with comprehensive knowledge and practical skills in the

design and analysis of prestressed concrete structures. The course covers fundamental

concepts including introduction to prestress, various systems of prestressing, elastic analysis

of prestressed members, calculation of losses in prestress, and advanced design

methodologies for flexure, shear, and torsion. Students will gain hands-on experience in

analyzing and designing both pre-tensioned and post-tensioned concrete members

following IS code recommendations, preparing them for real-world structural engineering

challenges.

Objectives of Event

The objective of this Course is to provide knowledge with more advanced coverage of various topics relating to the

design of prestressed concrete structures. The course will enhance the knowledge of various design methods and

behaviour of material in different conditions.

The student will be able to:

CO1: Analyze prestressed members.

CO2: Analyze prestressed members for flexure.

CO3: Design Prestressed concrete members for flexure

CO4: Design Prestressed concrete members for shear.

CO5: Design Prestressed concrete members for torsion.

CO6: Analyze and Design Prestressed members as per IS code recommendations.
